A Festive Time.

The ice cream and strawberry fes-
tival given last night by the ladies of
the Congregational Church was just as
everybody expected II would be-su-
peru. The ice cream was the coolest
and strawberries the sweetest and
possessed with more flavor than any
that ever grew and the ladies were
lovely and it was altogether good
to be there.
But there were Others and good
many of them, who attended the fes-
tival of the Baptist Church, and many
attended both. There might have
been q rivalry between the ladies Of
these two festivals, which may account
Tor their unusual excellence; the faci-
mating entertainment by the ladies and
the ease with which everybody seemed
to move and speak were comforts rare
ly enjoyed Well, it was a festive oc-
casion and every body had festive
time.

Card.

understand that the attorneys LETT
the impression on the minds of the
city council in their pleadings last
night. That | had told Mr.. Smith
that he owed no back taxes. He
claims 10 have asked me at the time he
paid the 1886 tax if that was all he
owed. If he did ask me, which do
not recollect, the impression that
would have been left on my mind, re-
ferred only to the advalorem tax for
the year 1886 and for special taxes, L
was only forcing collection for adva-
lorem for 1856 and all special taxes
